The role of the International Fund for Ireland and the European Union Peace II Fund in reducing violence and sectarianism in Northern Ireland
The Perception of Economic Assistance in the Northern Ireland Peace Process
Most international donors believe that promoting economic development deescalates ethnic conflict, thus enhancing the prospects for peace as ethnic communities negotiate settlements and bridge their political divisions. However, little empirical research has addressed the potential effects of external economic assistance in the rebuilding of those societies. This study explores the perceptions of a representative sample of Northern Irish citizens…
Economic Aid
Economic aid has been a critical component of the peace process in Northern Ireland allowing for community-based interventions, employment, social inclusion and regional stability. With the second round of funding coming to a close this essay explores the thoughts and perceptions of civil servants, fund administrators and community group leaders in Derry, Belfast and the Border Area to consider peoples reflections on the outcome of funding, conce…
The IFI and EU Peace II Fund
This article examines the views of ninety-eight study participants on community development and peacebuilding supported by the European Union (EU) Peace II Fund and the International Fund for Ireland (IFI). We elaborate the perceptions of community group leaders, funding agency civil servants and development officers regarding the role of both funds in Northern Ireland. Their experiences of the EU Peace II Fund and the IFI are discussed in the wi…

It draws on interviews of 98 study participants conducted during the summer of 2006, and a public opinion survey of 1,023 adults conducted in October 2006. The perceptions of community group leaders, funding agency civil servants and development officers are explored. T…

The Role of Economic Assistance in Conflict Resolution in Northern Ireland
External economic assistance from the International Fund for Ireland and the European Union Special Support Program for Peace and Reconciliation assisted in setting the context of the Northern Ireland peace agenda, and holds out the promise of a new civic culture. This article explores people’s perceptions of economic assistance of conflict amelioration in Northern Ireland. Some of the findings, in respect of inter-community differences in percep…
Beyond Greed and Grievance
Through a thoughtful and skillful blend of case studies, editors Karen Ballentine and Jake Sherman, along with the contributors to The Political Economy of Armed Conflict: Beyond Greed and Grievance, make an invaluable addition to the “greed or grievance” debate in the literature on civil wars. The volume proceeds from a recognition that “conceptualizing explanations of armed conflict in terms of greed or grievance has imposed an unnecessarily li…
A shared common sense
Renewed conflict by ethnic groups in regional peripheries has been a feature of international politics over the last 30 years. This article is mainly concerned with the protracted ethnopolitical conflict within Northern Ireland.The 1998 Good Friday Agreement may have ended the political violence that has shaken the foundations of Northern Ireland's fragile structures since the late 1960s. The Northern Ireland peace process has need of external ec…
Economic aid and policy making
English Most donors assume that promoting economic development enhances the prospects for peace by empowering communities in protracted ethnopolitical conflicts to negotiate settlements, encouraging the de-escalation of conflict, and by bridging ethnopolitical divisions. However, relatively little empirical research has addressed the potential effects of external economic aid in the reconstruction of those societies. This exploratory study consid…
Militant Nationalism
Revolutionary violence, revolutionary politics
About a year ago, I was talking to an Irish Republican movement activist about the possibility of an IRA cease‐fire. I asked him whether he would still consider himself a revolutionary if the IRA changed its strategy and pursued a negotiated, rather than a violent, settlement of the current conflict. Eddie (a pseudonym) said yes, since “being progressive and democratic” in the current situation was, in fact, to be a real revolutionary. The main o…
Eta
Under the Franco dictatorship, post‐Civil War generations of Basques grew up in a climate of physical violence and symbolic repression. Through the imposition of controls on all manifestations of Basque cultural and linguistic expression, the Spanish state transformed even the simplest of actions into defiant symbols of Basque identity. Rejecting, as ineffectual, attempts by the existing Basque Nationalist Party (PNV) to defend Basque culture, th…
Mobilization, Social Movements and Party Recruitment
Political life in the advanced industrial democracies since the Second World War has been characterized by periods of mass mobilization and protest followed by years of relative quiescence and institutional dominance. The individual phases have prompted extensive reflection. Far less attention, however, has been devoted to how developments in one phase might influence the subsequent one. Using data from a 1979 survey of activists of the Italian C…
